WoVO/FaffCamp Coupon

In just a little over a month, FaffCon's latest offshot:  FaffCamp will take place in Charlotte, NC.  (see details here).  More like a typical conference (rather than FaffCon's "un-conference format), FaffCamp will nonetheless have a very faffy feel, and you'll see a lot of your friends there....
